Exclamation ZipSlack not loading (computer says no!)


Hi,

I am trying to run zipslack on my Toshiba 200CDS (Pentium 1)

zipslack.zip was unzipped into c:\linux

linux.bat reads:

\linux\loadlin \linux\vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1

hda1 is my c drive

when run it gets to init then cannot execute any files
eg

INIT: cannot execute "/etc/rc.d/rc.M"
INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/agetty"

etc

and just to rub it in, I try to quit by pressing CTRL + ALT + DEL and it says

INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/shutdown"

all files are there when i look in dos

What am i doing wrong?

Please Help

Ian
